Was not familiar with them and halfway thru the album and it’s pretty good. Thanks for the post. Thanks, Wayne
his Dad is extended family and a few years back i overheard a convo about him working with more “country” producers because the blues fans didn’t support him and weren’t loyal enough. shortly afterwards he married that maga gal.
Great fucking show. Bluebird is a really cool small old theater, I’d say 500 people were there. Sons of the Second Sons on the new album is brilliant. Very powerful to hear live.
The Seniors on NBC only have a few holes left and it's getting tight. Padraig Cink Jimenez edit: appears I'm watching a fucking replay edit: and posting in the wrong thread
Shame how terrible Bingham is now. Guy literally has barely released a good song in the last 10 years. Charley is kind of what we thought Bingham would be after Mescalito.
My theory is Crazy Heart changed everything for him. He caught the Hollywood bug/attention and hasn’t released a good song since then. Now he’s deeply in the Yellowstone-sphere, making his own bourbon and generally leading the Urban Cowboy lifestyle. We’ll always have Mescalito, at least.
In June of 2024, Shooter Jennings unearthed and cataloged his father's personal recording collection of tapes. Inside he found enough finished songs to release three albums. One of the first songs he found was "Songbird". Though that song didn't need any additional musicians, Shooter enlisted Ashley Monroe and Elizabeth Cook to sing backgrounds on the song. For the rest of the album, and the subsequent to-be-released albums, when there were songs that needed a little musical love, Shooter brought in four of the living members of Waylon's Band, the Waylors (Jerry Bridges, Carter Robertson, Barny Robertson and Gordon Payne), to do a little work on the songs. This video is a compilation of footage from Waylon's 44th Birthday Party in Nashville in 1981, the first footage of the Waylors entrance to Snake Mountain (Sunset Sound Studio 3), the Waylors hearing the unearthed material for the first time, the Waylors helping finish material across the three forthcoming albums, as well as footage of Ashley Monroe and Elizabeth cook performing their background vocals on "Songbird".
I saw a meme that said Jelly Roll makes music for people who have tattoos of their children, but not custody of them and I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a truer statement.
